" TQaZZ @07min it may concern 'Be it'known that I, 'CHARLEs'I-I.v QUINLAN.,

a vcitizen of the United Statesof America, residing at Anisterdan'n in the county of Montgomery 4andl State `of* New York, have invented certain ivnew yan"d""us`efiil Improvements. in `'Electric yI llater-ItIeaters, ofivhich The 1invention h asfor its object to providefor conveniently and quickldyv heating a j quantity of-Wate'r or other liqui l A further object. isto provide for-carrypensive -andeffecti'veimanner. Y K

The invention therefore consistsof certain iiigout'the'aforesaidend in a simple," inex-4 V-striict-ural featiires','in'cluding the combina- ,tion and arranvein'entof parts substantially asl hereinafter iiillv disclosed and defined 'detailed construction and arrangement of Iparts maybe made yWithout departing from the spirit 'of the invention,` and in which drawing :-A

said tubular members being carried through .and supported in the wallsofthe receptacles i 4 and l.

From this arrangement it is apparent that Water or 'liquid running from the faucet or 60 cock Sinto the innermost receptacle 7,'after due 'connection has been niadeivitli the bat- `tery,"\'v *ill become heated, 'together `with 4the Water in the receptacle 4, which Water enters the latter, from thelower end` of the inner- 65.

most receptacle '7, the water then overlov'v-` ingthe` innerrecel'itacle i and entering the 'outer receptacle l. and finally passing' outt throughl the nozzled discharge-opening 1il 'of the receptacle l where it maybe received 70 into a pitcher or other suitable means.

:I he provision. of the openings near the y bottom ofathe innermost receptacle T' insures 4the passage of the Water through the heater after the receptacles and 7 are filled to 75V overflowing," since the forc'e of thewater from the spigot 3 downwardly "into the interior' of/ the receptacle together with 4the' fact that the colder Water naturally tends to descend, causes it to pass underneath 8e the openings and thence up Vbetween the receptacles and 4, thence over the edgeof the receptacle el. and dowii to the outlet 1F.

It is observed that, among other adva'ir tages, my invention is handy and ready of 855 application; itis usefful in the sick room,

as'ivellvasfoi' general purposes g' it is a great' boon' especially or'house'renters and houseroomingpeople; expense of operating "the device is very little;l and itis niannfactur-'eo .able 4atsinall expense.

I claim The combination 'witha faucet, of a water heating device consisting of, an exterior cylindrical receptacle provided' with -a-'top 95 having a threaded opening arranged to be screwed on to the end of the' faucet and pro 'vided' I'with a centrally disposed -outle't at" its bottom, an' inner ,cylindrical receptacle rovidedivith legs varranged to rest on vthe 1 00 ottoni; of |saidouter receptacle', ya third in- -nei-most cylindrical receptacle carried by.
